I'm really pissed off. I don't have to work this afternoon, and none of my buddies are around so I was planning on watching some afternoon baseball. So I check JSonline to see what game thier showing in Milwaukee and I see that instead of a big Yankees/Red Sox game, they're showing the steaming pile of crap that is the Cubs vs. Cardinals. Honestly who outside of maybe St.Louis/Chicago wants to see this trash. I'm sick of seeing nothing but the Cubs/Sox/Cards every stinking week. The Cubs are absolutely horrible, the Cards would be under .500 in the AL, and the Sox don't interest me.

 

Thank god for the PGA Championship....

Seems like every Fox Saturday game this year has been Cubs/Cards.

There have been 19 BB's so far in the Yankees/Red Sox game. Six by Yankee pitching and 13 given up by the Red Sox. The Yankees also have more BB's (13) than hits (10).

Stupid Cubs just blew a save. 4-4 now..

 

 

 

... but they win in the 10th! Sweet.

Could be worse. Here in the Duluth area, we get some combination of Yankees/Red Sox/White Sox/Mets/Cubs/Cardinals every week.

 

When people whine about the selections for games on ESPN, I always point them to FOX, which is no better. MLB is incredibly stupid in this regard, even moreso than the NHL.

Well, no game gained in the Wild Card, but we managed to gain one on St Louis, pull apart from Houston, and if the Dodgers hang on to their modest lead, jump into a tie with both SF and Colorado in the Wild Card chase. Nice evening.
